Parent Time with Miss Leah

by Leah Rosenthal-Kambic

Parenthood isn't for the faint of heart, and #momlife doesn't fulfill us all in the same ways. Many of us have lost ourselves in mothering, working and day to day life. Sometimes we don't even realize we are lost because we are so busy! We will explore practical tools for finding more ease and joy in parenting your children, to free up the YOU that may have gone missing in working parenthood. Fewer power struggles mean more time for your whole family to find and follow their passions. Powerful moms have space in their life to be mothers and also humans. Let's create the space together.

  13. You are America's Next Top Model...for your child

    Like it or not, our children are ALWAYS listening, and everything we do they are watching.

  19. Expectations, finding the sweet spot.

  20. Re-setting Holiday Dynamics; consent, boundaries and mantras to get you through

    If you're like most people, the holiday season is full of both joys and anxieties.
